The 2013 ROBLOX Easter Egg Hunt was the fourth annual egg hunt on ROBLOX. It ran from March 26th to April 5th, 2013.

Previously, there were egg drops held in 2008, 2010, and an egg hunt in 2012, which makes the 2013 Egg Hunt the first Roblox Easter Egg activity in an odd-numbered year. Although most of the egg hunting took place in one game, a few eggs were hidden in a few unspecified places in Roblox. At the egg hunt, players had to hunt for eggs in an all-terrain map. The players then received a badge when an egg was found. Also, the egg corresponding to the badge was also obtained. Some of the eggs hatched and unveiled exclusive items for players with the eggs.[1] Several different items were released in the Catalog in order to assist players with the egg hunt.

The event shattered multiple records, as well as introduced several features not found in previous egg hunts. The first record broken was the amount of concurrent users at one game, with around 19,079 players being the record. The egg hunt place also became the first game to get over 2 million place visits in a week. The egg hunt introduced the first gear-type eggs, hatched eggs, Studio eggs and website eggs.

Map Description:

The Egg Hunt 2013 map

Like the 2012 map, the map for the 2013 Easter Egg Hunt was an all-terrain map. The map contained a large stone volcano that was adjacent to a green field with a large oak tree standing near the volcano. The volcano erupted every hour in the server. A bridge that was connected to a stone tower was attached to the field near the volcano. An urban city was perched on a few gray cliffs across the map. A waterfall divided the urban city from the volcano and grassy field, and a bridge connected the two over the waterfall. A secret cave was located behind the waterfall, and led to a portion of the cliffs adjacent to the bridge. These cliffs overlooked a grassy valley

. The valley contained a few small single-story houses. Some of them were empty, and some contained tables holding boxes of Spam. An evergreen forest was located on the back of the map in the valley. A large, grassy hill connected the urban city to the forest. Multiple Mo'ai that resembled the ones found on Easter Island dotted the grassy hill. Several cows were found grazing on the large hill as well. An underground chamber was carved into the hill. The chamber had large urns burning in each corner of the room. Stone pillars bordered the room as well. The room was guarded by a large boss, who started in the center of the room. Players had to fight the boss in order to get the Deviled Egg.

Players spawned on a free-standing island that is suspended in mid-air. A series of teleporters that were shaped like the famous Stonehenge connected that island to the main map. Some of the other places that the teleporters led to included the urban city, the base of the volcano, the field near the tower, the secret cave, and the entrance to the underground chamber. The 'hub' of teleporters was located at the top of the large hill.

Eggs:

There was a total of thirty-four eggs in the 2013 Egg Hunt; twenty-five in the main place (including three Faberge Eggs), three hidden in the Roblox website and six obtained by doing things in the Roblox Studio.

In-game Eggs

These eggs were all found in the official Easter Egg Hunt 2013 map. There were twenty-five eggs in the map, including three Faberge Eggs.

Many people believed that Faberge Eggs spawned more often during one of these eggs.

This egg spawned by the tunnel near the bridge once every hour. It then started emitting shockwaves which destroyed eggs and tripped most players, and awakened the volcano. Players had to touch the egg to stop all this, and collect it.

The egg was publicly released on 4/3/2013, but it was obtained by a few players a day before.

This egg spawned rarely in various places, especially the city and volcano portal, as a handheld item. Once collected, the player had to walk into a hard surface, like a cliff wall or volcano edge, to smash and obtain it.

This egg rarely spawned in a secret room in the tree's top leaves, however, it was a very small handheld item. Once collected, it had to be placed in the waterfall's puddle near the houses, where it grew into a huge Epic Duck while pushing players back.

iEgg

A white egg with black ends, blue lights and a large power button in the middle.

This egg was released on 3/28/2013.

This egg was only obtainable by players if they were using the Roblox Mobile iOS app. Using the PC or Mac versions did not allow the player to get it, which some players ignored.

The Last Egg

An egg with several blue vertical lines all over it.

This egg was released during the last few hours of the Egg Hunt.

The egg also went "on sale" for free.

This egg spawned in the cave and did not require the other eggs, unlike the 2012 Last Egg. This egg burst when caught.

Faberge Eggs

These eggs were very rare, normally spawned in the cave, and (some say) spawned more often during a Cataclysmic Egg.
